  • During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show, along with Friends co-stars Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow, Jennifer Aniston spilled the tea about a guest actor who didn't seem too interested in being on set in the first place.

  • The guest actor apologized for their behavior years later.

  • Don't worry, it wasn't Tom Selleck.


Remember last month when everyone was jazzed about the Friends reunion? Saaaame—everything was right in the world because the gang was back together to bring us laughs, memories, and tears if I'm being honest. But as it turns out, a mysterious guest actor wasn't so pleasant to work with on set back in the day, according to Jennifer Aniston.

During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show, along with Friends co-stars Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow, Jen spilled the tea about a guest actor who didn't seem too interested in being on set in the first place.

“The funny thing is, that male did apologize about their behavior years later, and just said, 'I was so nervous, to be honest, that I wasn't on my best behavior,'” Jennifer said, per People. “It was as if they were just too 'above' this, to be on a sitcom.”

“I remember when we were doing a network run-through, the network and the producers would just laugh. And this person would be like, 'Listen to them, just laughing at their own jokes. So stupid, not even funny,'” Jennifer continued. “It was just like, 'What are you doing here? Your attitude, this is not what we're all about. This is a wonderful, warm place to be, and you're coming into our home and just shitting on it.'”

In case your mind is running wild with guesses of who it could possibly be, don't worry—it wasn't Dr. Richard Burke! Tom Selleck was a total angel. “You just don't know how cruel and unusual he is,” Jennifer joked before saying, “Tom has an angel's halo over his head, it's just a permanent halo over Tom's head.”

Sounds like we may never know who this ~mystery male actor~ was, womp womp!
